Thread: Ignoring control?

Hello again everybody.
So, I started to try to LD at about the beginning of the year (had been trying for the last years but not too seriously) though I have to admit I kinda gave up reality checking and writing dreams in the middle of the night. I had one LD in February and one in March, and 3 false awakenings in a row a few weeks ago.

I have a problem though, and it's really annoying. Sorry for opening a new topic, I didn't post here a lot but I read it a lot, and don't remember reading anything similar. So, in some dreams (it does happen pretty often) I kind of know that it's a dream (I'm not exactly sure how to explain this) I mean I know I have some kind of control over everything around me, and I do influence things. For example one time there was my dog (he died) and I knew he was back, I knew it wasn't real but I said I can enjoy it anyway and I can see him when I want. It wouldn't be so bad, except that many times I just dream about something, and I know it's not real, so I just imagine for example how someone does something and then they do it, but I never think "Oh, it's a dream, I could do so much more than this". It feels like I'm just ignoring the fact that it's a dream and I can change everything and control it, and instead I just change small things that don't matter. I don't know if I explained it well though, but it's so annoying. After I wake up I know I missed it and it feels like I wasted that dream by doing unimportant things.
Did anything similar happen to anybody or do you people know what I could do about it?
